Nina Maria Stemme (born Nina Maria Thöldte〔Swedish genealogical CD disk that can be acquired at http://www.genealogi.se/wiki/index.php/Sveriges_befolkning_1970〕 on May 11, 1963) is a Swedish dramatic soprano opera singer. Stemme "is regarded by today's opera fans as our era's greatest Wagnerian soprano". In 2010, Michael Kimmelman wrote of one of Stemme's performances in Richard Wagner's opera ''Die Walküre'', "As for Brünnhilde, Nina Stemme sang gloriously. It's hard to recall anyone's sounding more commanding or at ease in the part, and that includes Kirsten Flagstad". ==Early life and education== Born in Stockholm, the young Stemme played piano and viola. She attended Adolf Fredrik's Music School (Swedish: Adolf Fredriks Musikklasser), a high profile song-and-chorus school in Stockholm.〔 During a year as an exchange student at Langley High School in McLean, Virginia, she joined the school chorus, sang solos and won awards. Parallel to her studies of business administration and economics at the University of Stockholm, Stemme followed a two-year course at the Stockholm Operastudio. Her debut as Cherubino in Cortona, Italy, in 1989 made Stemme decide to follow a professional singer's career; her studies at the University College of Opera in Stockholm were completed in 1994. In addition to two minor roles at the Royal Swedish Opera in Stockholm, she also sang Rosalinde (''Die Fledermaus''), Mimì (''La bohème''), Euridice in Gluck's ''Orfeo ed Euridice'', and Diana (''La fedeltà premiata'' by Haydn).〔〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Swedish soprano best in the world )〕 She sang in two singing competitions, Operalia, The World Opera Competition〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Winners 1993 )〕 and Cardiff Singer of the World.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=BBC Cardiff Singer of the World 30 years )〕 As winner of Operalia in 1993, Stemme was invited by Plácido Domingo, founder of Operalia, to appear with him in a concert at La Bastille (1993); the same concert also took place on January 1, 1994, in Munich.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Artist Biography by Blair Sanderson )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Nina Stemme」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
